    Fix processing of PGC_BACKEND GUC parameters on Windows. · 6862ca69

    EXEC_BACKEND builds (i.e., Windows) failed to absorb values of PGC_BACKEND
    parameters if they'd been changed post-startup via the config file.  This
    for example prevented log_connections from working if it were turned on
    post-startup.  The mechanism for handling this case has always been a bit
    of a kluge, and it wasn't revisited when we implemented EXEC_BACKEND.
    While in a normal forking environment new backends will inherit the
    postmaster's value of such settings, EXEC_BACKEND backends have to read
    the settings from the CONFIG_EXEC_PARAMS file, and they were mistakenly
    rejecting them.  So this case has always been broken in the Windows port;
    so back-patch to all supported branches.
